I have to say that it's very hard for me to picture a 33-year-old Bump- shouldn't he be like 14 or something? WHAT?!? He's married with kids!?!? You have reminded me of some really fun times- it's true, your hubby does make everything more fun. I remember riding to St George with him and laughing the entire way.... I think he also taught me to play Tetris on that trip. The first thing I think of with Bump though is one time when he tried on some woman's big rings (so random- I have no idea where this memory comes from) and the first thing he thought to do was start boxing with them. I still think of Bump when I see a lady with big rings :)
So, Happy Birthday Mr. Grown-Up Bump! Hope you have many more!

P.S. Erin, if you love Sissel's "Dido's Lament" look up the Swingle Singers version (if you haven't already)- awesome!
